What a silly thing to say...Life sux. There are a few of us here, including myself, that have and are enduring some not so very cheerful things. I think I could speak for all of us, that life is actually good.
When the phone rings with bad medical news, or other news that tends to grip one by the short hairs, one seems to gain a better appreciation for each day and what it brings. Life is like a really fine, properly aged and cooked steak....very tasty, but rather limited in duration. Enjoy each bite.
